My Bodyguard

~Seven~

(Imagine that pavilion but surrounded by trees in an emerald green forest with more vines and creepers.)

Dream's pov

Two weeks had passed since I got the job. Since I had met George.

I had been avoiding him as much as possible because I knew I wouldn't be able to control myself. He didn't quite understand what he was doing to me. He didn't understand how he makes me feel every single day.

I sat in my room, trying anything to get George off my mind. The effect he had on me drove me insane. He merely had to look at me for me to crave him more. Whenever I'm around him, I have to constantly remind myself to not let myself do anything stupid.

I refused to come to the conclusion that this was love I had for him.

I had tried everything to get over whatever the hell this feeling was but it seemed to make things worse. A knock on my door tore me from my thoughts.

I rolled off my bed, making my way to the door. I opened it to see George looking right back at me. 'This is just what I need.' I kept my eyes on his dark chocolate ones, leaning against the door frame.

"You okay?" I asked, my voice deeper than I expected.
"Yeah, you wanna go on a walk with me?" He asked with a small smile.

'Great.' I thought.

"Uhh sure, one sec." I replied. I didn't want to go but I did want to spend time with him. I was just afraid of what could happen.

I closed the door, getting myself ready to go. George's inescapably gorgeous face made its way into my thoughts once again, completely taking over anything else that was once there.

I left my large room and made my way to the kitchen. At the sight of George, I slowed down. I wanted to take in his beauty without him seeing me.

He was wearing my hoodie with some simple blue jeans. The hoodie looked big on him but it suited him so well. His head was turned to the window which lit up his face in the most angelic way.

Without realising, I had gotten to the kitchen, a few steps from George.

"Ready?" I asked, beginning to walk to the door.
"Yep." He replied simply, following close behind me.

~~~~~

We left the mansion and started walking towards a familiar forest. The emerald forest I had seen from my balcony.

My mind raced with thoughts of George. I couldn't even bare to look at him because I just knew what I would do.

I had dreamt of everything I would do if I got the chance which only made it worse. It gave me more ideas. More reasons to do it. These dreams made me desire him more. I just wanted to feel his soft lips against mine.

As we walked, I imagined myself stopping and kissing him. I imagined myself pushing him up against something and kissing him until his lips were sore and swollen.

I heard George say something but it wasn't clear to me. For all I knew, I was imagining things.

"Dream?" His voice broke through my thoughts. My head snaped to him and I saw a flash of hurt on his face. I pushed it aside before replying.
"Yeah?"
"You want an earbud?" He held out a small black earbud to me.
"Sure." I took it from him, feeling the touch of his hands on mine. A chill is sent down my spine as our fingers brushed against each other.

I turned away before he could see my pink face, putting the earbud in. Everything went silent for a moment before music began to play.

The hum of a violin began to play softly in my ear. I looked over at George slowly, making sure he wasn't looking right back at me.

The verse started and I couldn't take my eyes of George. He was looking down at the ground in front of him, lost in thought. I wondered if his mind was in the same place as mine.

As we walked through the magical forest together, a few light drops of rain hit me one by one. At least we had some cover from the trees.

We continued to walk at a regular pace in silence. My eyes found their way back to George who was still looking down in thought. He looked absolutely gorgeous in the glowing green of the forest.

I found it harder and harder to control myself, the more I looked at him but I couldn't keep my eyes off him. He was so handsome and I could not only dream of the things I would do.

I had zoned out at the mere sight of him. I zoned back in to see him looking right back at me.

"Like the view?" He asked, cockily. He had a wide smirk spread across his face.

I wanted to say, Obviously or "How could I not."

My eyes widened as the words fell from my mouth. I looked back at him to see a wider smirk on his face. I turned away from him, flushing.

We walked for a little while longer before a small round pavilion comes into view. It is covered in all sorts of vines and creepers with flowers around the entrance.

We walk in and sit down on the small bench on the inside. Through the walls, I could see the darkened colours of various flowers.

George sat back in silence, gazing out at the forest. I turned to my left to see a small river running past the pavilion.

This place was absolutely magical, especially with George next to me. The song changed to a softer one.

(a/n: I would recommend listening to The Night We Met by Lord Huron.)

I shuffled slightly closer to George as a harmonious chorus of oohs filled my ear. He looked up slightly but turned away. Rain began to fall heavier outside. I longed to run out there and dance with him in the pouring rain.

The verse had begun. I desperately wanted to put my arm around him and hold him close. It pained me to not turn to him and plant soft kisses on his lips.

George turned to meet my eyes which I hadn't realised were on him. "Are you alright?" He asked with a slight hint of nervousness.
"Yeah, I'm fine." A warm smile formed on my face.

I desperately wanted to tell him everything. All of my thoughts. All of my desires.

Everything.

I managed to hold it back but it was difficult.

"Dream?" His voice once again cut through my thoughts, coincidentally of him.
"Yeah?" My voice was quieter than I had wanted.

"I- uhh.. Nevermind." I couldn't help but wonder what he was going to say. Was it what I hoped for? Or was it nothing?

My mind began to race once again, causing me to zone out with my eyes on the ground.

What did he have to say?
